| Summary: | Mountain have long been areas of tourist interest. In connection with the
rapid development of the service, the range of tourist activities in the
mountains is increasing. The study area is mountainous part of the Ural
economic region, the most economically developed part of the Ural Mountains.
The paper attempts to structure the tourist service by types of tourism -
medical and recreational, skiing, nature-based, industrial, event. As a
result, it was revealed that a number of types of tourism form their own
service system and are clearly localized in space (health, ski, nature-based
tourism), other types of tourism (industrial, event) are not so strictly
determined. Medical tourism is the most inert type of tourism. The geography
has not undergone significant changes over a long period of time due to the
complete dependence on the infrastructure base of the sanatorium-resort
complex. Ski tourism is a dynamically developing type of tourism in the
region under consideration. Despite the need for significant investment,
the network of ski resorts is growing and the range of their tourist
services is expanding. Nature-based tourism, natural recreation is the most
common type of tourism due to the widespread creation of tourist service
facilities with the widest range - recreation centers and tourist bases,
guest houses, glamping, campsites, etc. These objects gravitate towards
natural attractions, picturesque outskirts of populated areas, points and
banks of reservoirs, sustainable tourist routes. |
